responce on fear

I can relate to Stephanie Federico’s image representing loneliness. The woman in the picture is isolated in her room of depression. After college I plan on committing two years of my life to the peace core. I’m afraid I’ll be stranded in the African desert with no friends other than the people I would be helping. I would be isolated in a large group of people whom I have nothing in common with. I know eventually I will make friends where ever I end up in the world. Loneliness is a fear that is somewhat curable. If you don’t want to grow old alone, surround yourself with people who care about you.

fear




These are my images for fear. The first picture is a painting by Robert Motherwell titled Monster. I liked this image because it envoked fear with a simple minimally defined figure. The unexplainable and bizarre has always been a fear of man kind as a whole. The second image is a group of bronze statues by Bryan Hunt. The figures have a large than human presence which is intimidating. The last image is a Dali titled A Logician Devil - Lucifer. This illistratian envokes frightful themes such as canabalism, death, and hell.
